Hunt’s Services, Your Repiping Experts!

Do you have lead in your water? Corrosion in the pipes? Failing plastic lines? Low water volume? Metallic or bad-tasting water? Old galvanized or rusty brown water? Copper pitting and recurring leaks? There are many reasons you might need a repipe—and whatever the cause, Hunt’s Services can help. With decades of field experience and High-Quality, Professional Workmanship, we’ll get the job done right the first time.

Where we start: we identify why your system is failing, so we can repipe once and repipe right. Then we prepare your home—protecting floors and furnishings with runners, drop cloths, and plastic—before opening targeted areas of walls and ceilings for access. We remove failing lines, clean the work area, and install new piping per the Uniform Plumbing Code. Water repipes are typically Aquapex (PEX) unless you request copper; drain repipes use ABS. After installation, we pressure-test, flush, verify fixture operation, and walk you through the results. You don’t pay the final portion until you’re 100% satisfied.

Pierce County: How Long Pipes Typically Last

Pipe lifespan depends on material, installation quality, and water chemistry. As a general guide for Pierce County homes:

  • Brass or galvanized steel supply lines: 80–100 years (galvanized is more prone to internal corrosion).
  • Copper supply: 70–80 years, though localized corrosion or pitting can shorten life.
  • Cast iron sewer: 80–100 years, with risk of scale, cracking, or root intrusion.
  • PVC sewer: 25–40+ years depending on soil conditions, bedding, and loading.

If your home is over 50 years old—especially with original galvanized steel—you may be due for inspection. Visible symptoms like repeated pinhole leaks, discolored water, or uneven pressure indicate age-related deterioration. For sewer lines, begin with a professional drain cleaning or hydro jetting and a camera inspection to determine whether repair or replacement is appropriate.
